We could remove the suggestion, but please do note that the documents really say implementations should use what is best for them. It suggests that HTTP has some advantages, and you're right we should probably add some text describing why DNS does too. IMHO, we should be providing options not mandates for what to use. > (IXFR seems well-suited to LocalRoot, but we could pretty easily layer > on ZSTD or something if needed.) IXFR actually isn't useful for signed zones, as the IXFR content ends up being about the same size after every zone signing. But do note that it's an option for URLs in the option list too. > The proposed "root zone publication points" system effectively > introduces a hard dependency on HTTP, to accomplish the equivalent of > what DNS Priming does in-band. No, it says that both AXFR and HTTP records should be available for use. That's an option not a dependency. -- Wes Hardaker Google _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
